Springs....
There are Springs from HPI that are not listed with the Pro-4 springs that are the same size....25mm long. These springs are stiffer then the ones that are listed just for the Pro-4. So if you need a stiffer spring then HPI still has it just look for HPI springs that are 25mm long.....I think the stiffest one is 33lbs.....and you wont need one any stiffer then that.
Also TC3 springs are not made very well.....so I would stay away from them.

I use TC3 springs and they work just fine. I did replace the plastic spring cup thing with the AE ones for a better fit. Stock HPI ones still work though.

HPI Spring Info
Spring Chart
25mm springs will fit as it is the standard spring size for the Pro4. The 23mm will likely work. Anything longer than 25mm is very unlikely to fit and be able to obtain ride height.

I just got a set of the Schumacher Ball Grippa's and it came with a set of 8. If I plan on replacing each ballcup with the new ones, which ones are most important? Since I only have 8 and there are obviously 10 ballcups on the car.

Thanks, but I only have 8 of them, which is only enough to do 4 complete pairs of links. I was told that the camber ones are most important?

and don't forget to drill a hole on top of the ball cups. it helps access the 2mm hex for easier access and adjustments.

I just installed the ball cups. Nice and tight fit. However, the rear ballcups are still rubbing the rear wheel. Did I do something wrong?
